Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the grated zucchini into a kitchen towel and squeeze all excess liquid out. Discard the liquid. It should come out to 1 cup packed after the liquid is squeezed out.
- Transfer the dried zucchini into a medium bowl. Add the egg, cheese, panko breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning and onion powder. Season with salt and pepper, and then combine until mixture sticks together.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and form into small ovals, like the shape of tater tots. Makes about 16.
- Place the tater tots on the greased baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until they're golden.
- Serve warm with ketchup or other dipping sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 Grate the zucchini and squeeze out as much water as you can. It's surprisingly a pretty watery veggie. The more water you get out, the crisper your tots will be. Use a tea towel, or paper towels to squish and absorb the water. Add all ingredients into a large bowl. Stir well. Spray a mini muffin pan with a non-stick spray. You could alternatively shape these into tots and place on a baking sheet. Fill the muffin tin with the mixture, and bake for 15-20 mins or until the tops have turned golden. Serve immediately with a low fat sour cream, light blue cheese, or reduced sugar ketchup!
